Guided by Our Core Values
Integrity
We do things the right way, without compromise. We are direct, decisive and, above all, accountable. We practice sound judgment and common sense in our actions. We have a strong culture of compliance, where adhering to all applicable laws, rules and regulations is paramount. We win on the merits, with integrity.
Winning
We are here to win. We are constantly improving and are committed to out-thinking and out-executing our competitors. We take on what others dismiss as impossible and solve the hard problems that others walk away from. This is why we hire the best.
Meritocracy
We empower and reward team members who deliver results. We create opportunities by consistently making career and compensation decisions on the merits, recognizing that doing so attracts and retains the best and brightest.
Learning
We are driven by a thirst for knowledge. We are constantly learning—from each other and from inspired thinkers around the world. We passionately pursue new ideas, new innovations and new strategies that will strengthen our competitive advantage.
Extraordinary Colleagues
We hire extraordinary people. We build extraordinary teams. We demand a culture of collaboration where we learn from each other, inspire one another and share in our successes. We achieve far more together than we ever could on our own.
Mutuality
We empower our clients and partners to play a leading role in financial markets, and our success is their success. We win together.
